anyhelp plz?
Hello
move the phone with your hand as you write number 8 in he air or shake it hardly
well thanks man, shaking works, number 8 didnt, but did you notice that the compass is not accurate and may give error readings a lot of times?
that's true, for that must shake your phone every time you use it and some time shake it many time until you get the same degree reading

Anyone know of a tweak for this? On my sprint TP it is automatically turned off if I take picture while on a phone call, so there must be an option somewhere to turn it off for good.
i would really like to know this as well

Strange that it gets turned off during a phone call. Can anyone else confirm this?
yeah i tried it during a call and it does get turned off during a call.
i want to turn it off because the autofocus takes so long. especially when i need to snap those quick pictures...
Same here, no autofocus during a phone call... I'm using original ROM.
I'm very interested too in a solution for that strange behavior.
I would like to know how to turn it off as well because it takes too long to snap the shot! Would be great if there was an option to turn it on or off!
May no be EXACTLY what you're looking for, but go in to camera->settings->advanced and on page 3, there's a Shoot Option. Change this to Full Press, and no more AF.

I have it at Full Press, but that still is auto focus. As soon as you hit it, you will see the camera try to focus on what ever you're trying to shoot before it actually takes the photo.
I too am curious as to how to turn it off.
there's gotta be like a registry tweak????? someone? anyone? haha
Auto Focus - turn off tweak

Even i m in dire need of this tweak........sometimes its impossible to get a good snap, bcos of the delay caused by auto focus.......
i was using UIQ 3 phone earlier, where a half press would lock the focus and full press will immediately click snap without a delay.....
can someone make sum tweal on similar lines
please someone. haha
BUMP.......
Turning off Auto Focus
Anyone help !!!!!!!!!
Bump
This is very odd. I guess that even HTC knew that the camera program was either not optimized or demanded to much resource so they cut off the autofocus mid call.
From my own experience, its really hard trying to figure out the system calls coming form the dialer, i dont think this is going to be an easy fix.
Bump!
Bump!
Bump!
it would be nice if someone could do this? i would donate happily )
also id really like a auto lfash - which i think is in development
but this is a good idea as i agree it takes so long to focus that you hardly ever get a good shot
I'm interested in this. Have missed many pics due to the focus being so slow!
why does nobody want to reply to thread with an answer? strange seeing as there is so much demand
I use AutoFocus and have no delay in taking a picture.
If you have a delay in taking a photo just change the settings using the Advanced Configuration Tool. Under the camera options, capture delay should be disabled, key delay disabled and capture key delay set to zero.
Also, try this:
HKLM/Software/HTC/Camera/Captparam/
and set
CaptureTimer = 0 (old=5000)
Two more things to do - go into the camera advanced settings (in the camera itself) and turn off the click sounds and set the review time to no limit. With those changes above I think I have a working camera here...
While we're at it, if your photos are yellow change the white balance settings: http://www.fuzemobility.com/?p=951
Hi
Is there any calibration app that actually works ? My sensor is tilted little bit to right.
I have tried This app but it doest work (it does nothing...)
There is example what it does... note that table is perfectly flat and horizontal.

(snap cam, show horizont setting)
This isnt ROM problem, i have this problem on every rom.
EDIT: Its most annoying in "doodle jump" type of games, because it goes still left even my phone is standing perfectly horizontaly (hope you know what i mean)
Can someone help me how to reset "zero" position of acc meter ?
Well, i guess iam doomed. No reply in 48 hours. :/

Get your phone serviced.

I have the same problem. Waiting for replies.
I also noticed it. As far I know accelerometer can not be calibrated on system level. Probably another hardware problem. Maybe sensor is placed wrong on motherboard or sth.:silly:
i have tried this thread and it worked for me http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-l/themes-apps/sony-xperia-l-calibration-app-t2519229
Hi all,
Forgive me if this has been covered as it seems like it would be a pretty common complaint (even through i've searched the forums for 40 mins now with no luck of finding anything on it).
Basically is there a way for me to view my notifications in the same orientation that the alarm clock shows. As it is right now, I have my phone on my desk with the screen facing me, and every time somebody texts me or I receive a general notification I have to literally try to decode it in the 1 second that it shows up (upside down).
Any suggestions? I don't want to have to flip my phone upsidedown (with left handed mode enabled) every time I want to read a notification the right way up - this seems like a huge functional flaw in samsungs edge screen.
Thanks, Steve

I wish! Makes no sense the way it is, especially when the night clock is the right way up but nothing else is.
Only thing I have found to work (temporarily) is to open an app that can be rotated, then turn your phone so the edge is at the bottom, and then shut the flip cover. Now anything on the edge is the right way up. But as soon as you open an app the right way up again (or go home) then it goes upside-down again.
I think it's an accelerometer or gyroscope sensitivity issue. Mine works the way it should most of the time. On the times that it doesn't, I just move it a little bit to either the left or the right and the display orientation is corrected...
Yes but if you then place it on the table and let the edge turn off, then get a message the notification will be upside down again
Like I said, mine works as it should on most occasions. Lying flat on a table, I just rub the edge and the notifications are facing me.
When they don't, a simple nudge to the left or right re-orients the edge and the notifications face me again...

Hi everyone !
I just got my Samsung Galaxy S8+, which is an amazing phone for me. It really has everything I always wanted
I just see that the iris scanner has a strange behaviour in my case : In low light conditions (example at the bed) if I try to unlock the device first time It works perfectly and It's also fast. Second time also.
From the third time, It won't detect my iris. And I try to move the phone in every way, closer, up, down, etc... It's not giving me any particular error but It simply won't recognize my iris.
If I just lock the device and wait a minute It works perfectly again.
Of course I've tried to re-register my iris million times (I've noticed that in my case It doesn't register them in low light conditions), but nothing, the problem persists.
I've also clean the front sensors and IR light.
Anyone else is experiencing this problem ? It's a bit weird.
Thanks in advance !
I could be wrong, but could it have something to do with your pupil expanding in the dark? The first couple of times that you scan your eye hasn't gotten used to the dark yet, but later your pupil has expanded in the dark so much, that the scanning fails. Because when your pupil expands, the iris shrinks, and the scanner can't get a proper reading from a smaller surface area
I had the same exact problem in the dark too, and it only appeared after I had been in the dark for a while, and for me at least I think this is the case

Nice, this could be the problem
I don't have the exact same issue, but it's kinda related to the iris scanner. My phone will only prompt to unlock it (Iris or PIN) first thing in the morning...every other time after that it can be unlocked with just a swipe of the screen. How do I get it to prompt every time? I've checked the settings and it's set to lock after 5 sec of the screen being off.
Mine always takes several seconds to recognize irises at first (sometime doesn't completely) but it works perfectly at second times, not sure what's wrong with it.
So, what the title says, I just downloaded it from xpirifirm and Installed it using flashtool, am hoping to fix the problem with voice messages from WhatsApp and messenger as well (basically 1 in 10 voice messages I send go silent in the middle of the recording), there is not a changelog from Sony but they never give any so I hope this could be more than just a security patch, I want to know if any of you have installed it and if you have noticed any fix, thanks, If I find out something I will tell you. Thanks for reading.
Well, sadly I couldn't fix the issue with the voice notes, but I disabled the "ok Google" feature from the Google assistant and I haven't had any problem with voicenotes anymore, let's see if it stays like that.
It didnt solved the problem, I plan to go back to android 9
Does not feel any fix, but so frustrating 'couse battery capability is much much worse...
I think the fingerprint at least is faster and more reliable.

I fixed the voice messages disabling the feedback tactile of 3 under screen buttons
Did the upgrade change your GPS functionality? Since the day I updated, my phone started drifting. I have 25 kilometers displacement on a day staying permanently at my home office. Compared to 0.5 kilometers before the update.
I didn't understand how you fixed the voice messages, can you be more specific?
Hey guys, it's July 9th and the last firmware released for xperia xz2 is 52.1.A.2.1, will Sony stop supporting this device or what? Btw my cellphone has now a ghost touch.

Same for me! Just about a week or so, I am annoyed by the quick settings bar being occasionally pulled from top while typing on the keyboard or working in apps. With the "Show taps" option turned on from the developer settings, I can clearly see that the device sometimes detects an extra tap (draws the corresponding circle) at the very top of the screen right after I tap somewhere else. This activates the system bar and switches the focus from the app. This only happened before with the screen very dirty or wet (i.e. in the rain). However, this time cleaning it and rebooting the system didn't help. My initial idea was that I could have damaged the screen sensors or other hardware somehow. But this might be instead a planned action to support the upcoming models' sales Interestingly, there was no software update accompanying the behaviour change — seems like there are some remotely controlled sensor options their engineers could be playing around.

Thanks for sharing your experience, well I still have the ghost touch but now occurs more often and I have had another issue since some months ago ad well and tje thing is that sometimes the proximity sensor "detects" it's being covered and makes the screen flash several times during a call or hearing voice notes in whatsap, sometimes the failure is as bad that I have to restart the phone, I don't know what could be causing this problem but I have to say that I have dropped some water in my cellphone in the past two or three times, and I don't know, maybe some of this water came into the phone through the earpiece and messed with the upper part of the screen and the other sensor up there, my phone os almost a year old now, Do you guys think it might mot be water resistant anymore? And btw, have you dropped water in the phone as well? Thanks for reading.
